Should be:
SET PRINTER TO NAME \\ServerName\PrinterName

>To free up room in the server room, would like to move this program to a Win2k server having it run in a DOS window on the screen. When testing this, the above command is no longer able to execute with the error being "Program too big to fit in memory". I increased /100 to /400 but still no luck.

>So I thought I would try another route as I remembered that SET PRINTER TO could point to a network queue. I tried the following commands (I tried them one at a time but nothing worked - they seem to need to work together - help files are too sketchy to know)

>SET PRINTER TO \\NovellServer1\Brokerage = LPT1
>SET PRINTER TO \\SPOOLER\NB\Q=Brokerage

>No error seems to be generated but my output did not make it to the printer (I should add that if I did something simple like opening a table and issuing "List lastname to printer" that I got output to go - but a regular report (.frx) output did not make it there).

>Am I using the above commands correctly? Should I be able to send output to a Novell queue from a W2K server (workstation)?
